Week 1 ChaLEAN Extreme



Monday I started  my new program ChaLean Extreme! This program is really different from what I am normally used to with all my cardio from Turbo Fire, but I love it. It really is a change in pace because Chalene Johnson wants you to lift slow, and I mean slow. She is so motivating telling you that you CAN DO IT, that we are building muscle and MUSCLE BURNS FAT! There were a few times where I pick a weight that was either to heavy or to light. I wrote down the amount of weight I was using on my calendar and will get the right ones next week.

Let me tell you my whole body is sore, but it's the good sore of building muscle! Call me crazy, but I really do love the feeling of being sore. In my mind the feeling of sore means that I know this is working.

My goal with ChaLEAN Extreme is to get down to 125 and get a flat tummy!

Getting Extreme!!

So excited for Monday to come!!! Why is that, well I will be starting ChaLEAN Extreme!! So what is ChaLEAN Extreme you may ask it is a body-sculpting program designed to help you lose up to 60 percent of your body fat in just three months, and see visible results every 30 days. It uses resistance training to increase lean muscle mass, which has been proven to burn calories and raise your metabolism. The result is a 
lean, firm, well-toned physique.

You may already know that I personally LOVE Turbo Fire, it is truly my soul-mate workout for sure. Well, Chalene Johnson is also the creator of ChaLEAN Extreme. She is an amazing and motivating fitness leader and I love her!

There are 3 Phases to this program. The first is the Burn Phase. This is where I will start lifting weights so that I jump start my metabolism. The next is the Push Phase and I WILL LIFT HEAVY weights so that I will build that muscle to burn the fat. The last one will be the Lean Phase where new moves will be introduced to me! 



Are you ready to go EXTREME??? I am and cannot wait!!
